Gotham - Season 1

[Guy Gardener]

Which is ten times better than Superman lifting an island made of Kryptonite into orbit.

You can't just say something is bad without recognizing that it is a significant improvement on shit has been pulled by the last pack or morons.

 

[Awesome Possum]

The writing is better than Age of Ultron.. I mean that film has

Spoiler: sshhh spoilers

an AI lifting an entire city to create a mass extinction event.

Incompetent writing

Please tell us how you would improve it.

You really needed to bring a major spoiler for a newly released Marvel film into a completely unreated thread, just so you could get a dig at Marvel in? You really are sad and pathetic.

 

[Beagleman]

^
Indeed.

 

[Flying Spaghetti Monster]

I didn't think it was a big spoiler. If it was I apologize. I was just thinking that was the overall story of the film. I honestly didn't know it was a spoiler

 

[Timby]

I haven't seen [The Godfather].

Infraction for flaming, comments to PM, etc.

The notify button is there for a reason, folks.

But not in this thread, or if you forget, that's also ok.

Hilarious article picking apart all the problems with the season finale

 

[Icemizer]

^Pretty funny article, but Falcone needed a chicken and he needed it right away.

 

[jbny67]

So did anyone else think the old lady in the elevator holding the dog was Peter Scolari in drag? He certainly has the experience for it. Otherwise, it just seemed like a really weird scene in the middle of the catfight.

I thought I was the only one.

^Pretty funny article, but Falcone needed a chicken and he needed it right away.

An earlier episode (I think "Penguin's umbrella") hinted at his fondess for chickens... I don't remember what was said

 

[Mr Light]

I wonder how he kills his chicken...

 

[Forbin]

Strangles them, I'm sure.

Or he has one of his underlings pop them in the back of the head with a .22.

 

[Mr Light]

As long as he doesn't choke them.

 

[The Old Mixer]

Nygma stabs them, butchers them, and leaves an obvious clue.

 

[Guy Gardener]

So in every other scene in the show when Nygma was talking to himself, we couldn't see the rest of him talking back?

 

[Jax]

Is it just me or were the action scenes in the finale were handled poorly and felt like they were directed by a small child. FOX should of left Gotham alone at 16 episode was it originally? and extended further seasons to make up for lost episodes. Gotham for a long time was on a really good streak but its fallen down hard in recent weeks in many places and the finale while action packed was just not good story telling.

 

[JD]

That was an interesting finale.
Random thoughts:
Why did Selina just join Fishes gang like that? It just seemed kind of random. Like they couldn't figure out what to do with her but wanted her in the episode anyway.
So is Barbara dead? I honestly can't remember if she survived or not.
I knew Maroni was dead the moment he started antagonizing Fish, and it was a really anti-climactic way for him to go out after everything he did.
Someone points out Selina rubbing her face against Fishes like a cat in the scene where they were holding Gordon and co. captive. Am I the only one who finds that kind of weird, and almost a little creepy?
What happened to Montoya and Allen?
Penguin screaming "I'm the king of Gotham!" was ridiculously over the top.

Why did Selina just join Fishes gang like that? It just seemed kind of random. Like they couldn't figure out what to do with her but wanted her in the episode anyway.

Which pretty much sums up the whole season for Selina. Not to mention Ivy, whom they totally forgot about in the last few episodes.

So is Barbara dead? I honestly can't remember if she survived or not.

From the interviews I've read, she's alive.

I knew Maroni was dead the moment he started antagonizing Fish, and it was a really anti-climactic way for him to go out after everything he did.

I guess he won't be the one to scar Harvey Dent's face with acid in this continuity.

Penguin screaming "I'm the king of Gotham!" was ridiculously over the top.

Which pretty much sums up the whole season for Penguin. And just about everyone else.
